The file size of backup C drive

Hello

Running Server 2008 R2 I noticed that there is a huge difference in the size of the backup of the C drive. The only thing on the disc is the installation of the OS with standard windows services. Hourly snapshots do he goes from 30 MB to 11FR in size.

I'm just curious to know which would cause the huge difference in file size and if there is anyway to keep this to a minimum. Drive C arouses large sets of our readers of data backup.

Any idea is appreciated.

Hi all

Dell-AppAssure Agent is the change tracking on the volumes (at the level of the block) and write to the log files driver (located in the System Volume Information folder). This files are designed for the drivers of Dell-AppAssure so information in a convenient format for the driver.

Changes may be caused by the system logs or suggested as Wes Antivirus software. Swap file could also cause the changed blocks.

Thank you

  • the file size of backup/restore

    Hello

    I / m a beginner in oracle, so please be patient.

    I had a complete test-database. I tested my application. Now, I want to deploy an empty database to another location. So, I made a backup and restore. (first set archivelog true, by using the sql command line).

    To my surprise, the restored data file has the same size as the database complete. I expected to be very low. In the database use to work with (firebird) backup and restore is a way to clean your data and get rid of the empty space...

    Oracle seems to handle this in different ways. What Miss me?

    I did a backup and restore.

    I guess you used the backup and restore Oracle, which takes place in RMAN menu. If so, RMAN makes a 'physical' backup, if the copy cannot be different from the original.

    To reorganize your data, you must use the expdp/impdp command.

  • Why can't I reduce the file size of virtual disk?

    Workstation help 8.0.4, why is the file size of virtual disk for my more bigger than the amount of space used within the instance instance?

    The instance (Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit) HARD drive is 40 GB... He is currently using 28.6 GB of this space.

    But the hard for instance file is 34.5 GB size - it is more than 20% larger.

    I defragmented the drive on the instance.

    I defragmented and compacted file hard (via the 'vmware-vdiskmanager' command line utility)

    I defragmented the host drive.

    Any not really - I'm just curious as to why I can't get it down to a smaller size (mainly to speed up backups)

    Narrowing of a virtual disk is done in two steps. Unused disk space must first be cancelled in the comments, what OS, then blocks not null the hard are copied to a new file hard. With VMware Workstation 8, you can start this process in the VMware Tools window (right-click the icon in the system tray)

  • Create new report if the file size is too large

    The sequences I run in TestStand have the ability to generate large reports and I am looking for a way to start a new sequence of intermediate report if the file size exceeds certain limits, either start a new report every night at midnight.

    I am currently using TestStand 2014 and reports ATML 5.00.

    Here, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I was hoping I'd be able to use some substitutions to get there, but it sounds a bit more complex than that. [...]

    There is no specific substitutions that solve this problem 'in configuration and only few implementation".

    The point is that you should follow the following steps:

    1. check the size of the file after writing a new segment of report data.

    2. If size > configured the file size, create a new file. Write a footer in the previous file, duplicate the header for the new file information and store the handle to file for all the previous files.

    3. once the test is complete, update the header in all files (remember: the header contains the overall result of the ESA.) This is known only when the test is finished!) and finalize all the report files.

    In the plugins default report, none of the above functions is applied.

    You want may also focus on 'File offline results' as a reporting mechanism. It might be easier to change things using this approach, unless you go the recommended manner: database.

  • What should be the file size of Vista SP2 through Windows Update If SP1 is already installed?

    Hello

    Please could someone clarify this? I read on a few messages that if Vista SP1 is already installed then the Vista SP2 update file size should be around 40-50 MB.

    I checked manually through Windows Update > check for updates. He finds updated Vista SP2, but the file size is of approximately of 340-350 MB.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Indicates that there should be ~ 43meg for 32-bit and ~ 60meg for 64 bit.

  • The file size and YouTube

    I'm relatively new to videos. I have incorporated a few YouTube videos on my site, but I started to play with the Prime Minister in the hope to learn to make my own videos. I wonder if someone could help me to answer a few questions about the size of the file.

    A large image can greatly increase the size of the page file, in order to put a video on a page should have a huge impact. Or is the negligible impact because the video doesn't "load" until someone clicks on it?

    When someone plays a video, it probably uses a lot of bandwidth.

    So it occurred to me that the obvious solution to the file size band bandwidth problems and probably is bandwidth. Instead of hosting videos on my sites, I could upload them to YouTube and then embed them on my web pages.

    If I use this strategy, which would help a lot in terms of use of bandwidth and page load time?

    Maybe I should have put my question this way: what are the advantages and disadvantages of video hosting on your site rather than publish them on YouTube? I guess that I retain the copyright for all the videos I put on YouTube.

    Thank you.

    If played from YouTube or your own web server, the file size of the video will not add anything significant to the size of the web page.  They are simply text files, very small in comparison.  Adding a video is a few lines of code pointing to the reading software and the video file itself.

    If you host the file on your own server, then the bandwidth will count towards your monthly totals, while only hosted on YouTube, he obviously won't.  But the web page itself will not change much in size.

    Don't know or the other of these issues matter much, however.  You can get hosting packages unlimited bandwidth for $100 / year, maybe less.

    Copyright is another problem.  YouTube will take down or limit some videos under certain conditions.  (And these days, not all these conditions are fair and appropriate under the U.S. Copyright Act).  Their accommodation on your own site, this isn't a concern.  (However, it does not necessarily legal, either.)

  • When lowering pixels of resolution of a video, the file size becomes smaller...

    Hello!

    My question is this:

    I am importing a tiff of scope (2048 X 858) 2K sequence in Premiere Pro CC 2015.

    When I go to the export section, as you can see in this video link:

    First Pro CC 2015 (resolution size) export settings - YouTube

    and try to lower the resolution 2048 X 858, 5 X 2 or 854 X 480 or 1280 X 536! the size of the file remains the same! Is this possible?

    This means that if I have a 4K video and a video card, they will have exactly the same file size!

    I tried to make a sequence of low resolution and drop tiff sequence and adjustment of the sequence in the image of low resolution tiff, but I have the same problem.

    I've even nested sequence of high-resolution sequence of lower resolution, but... Nothing...

    Does this make sense? What I am doing wrong?

    Thank you!

    Yiannis

    Yiannis, Yes. Unlike a photo, a video, the file size is determined by the data rate. However, the data/flow isn't what determines quality, you need to consider in the codec you use.

    For example, a 50 Mbit/s, 720 x 480 H.264 file and a 50 Mbps DV (video only, forgetting the audio codecs) will be exactly the same size. but the H.264 file is going to be better because it's a step more coded with a better compression algorithm.

    Another factor that determines the size of the file is the frame rate. I'm not saying that you should drop your rate to save space, but know that if you save 2 files with the same exact settings, but we're 30 p or 25 p and the other is 50 p or 60 p, then the latter will be twice as large.

  • I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now want to import some RAF b HD files

    I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now have to import some RAF of the HD files but LR shows them as dazed out and said that they have already been imported when I hover over the thumbnail. I have this problem when importing files in the same HD Canon CR2, and who have been treated exactly the same. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Thanks, Phil

    Hi Phil,

    If Lightroom then reads these as duplicate files, it shows that they are already present in your Lightroom Catalog.

    You can search by file name and check if the image is present in your library.

  • The file size of data pump-

    I use below syntax to export a schema, using the file size to limit the maximum size of each dump file to 50G.

    expdp dumpfile=soa._%U.dmp filesize = 50G = DPP patterns parallel soa = directory = 4 logfile = soa.log

    I see one of the files has exceeded 90GB and continues to increase, his writing to 4 files at the same time, but has not yet created a 5th file. I would be surprised that this file > 90 GB more? Appreciate your thoughts

    It seems that he does not know the size of the FILE when you incorrectly specify.

    It could work differently & better for you as a FILESIZE = 50 GB

  • The file size is huge despite the linked files

    Hi, I met a very strange thing.

    I am just placing some raster files in my illustration. I have always used the link option, because I keep my files in good condition and I really like the small files. (The contrary would be the Embed option, which saves the content placed in the file have.)

    But, despite a link to raster instead of embed files, my file have size gets really huge with the placed content. As a general rule, 80 MB with three raster images placed. It includes of course placed in any case files. And they are recorded in a sort of uncompressed format, too; the actual jpg file weigh only about 3 MB in total.

    Even more strange is the fact that if I move the content placed outside my work plan, the size of the file down again normal values (usually 600 kB). Means that the file size is something to do with the preview of the file or something, which (I think) is limited to the artboard.

    This has never been the case with Illsutrator before, has it?

    Is this really how Illustrator should behave, or I have some very odd here?

    InDesign handles content exactly how I like it: no incorporation of all.

    It is the ability to save a PDF compatible file that incorporates the images.

  • How can I reduce the file size?

    Hi all

    I'm running into a bit of a problem here, and I can't find a workaround. I was hired to create a few small icons for a TeamSpeak 3 channel and my files must be 16 x 16 pixels and under 8 KB size, otherwise TeamSpeak will not accept the picture.

    I don't want to degrade the quality of the icons that I made, and the smallest I could get the file size was 16 k with 10 KB for JPG and PNG. All the icons are color. I can get a few simple icons to fall under 8KB, but there are a few others that I can't.

    What is the best way to reduce the size of the file on the small photos, and how to get the file size less than 8 KB? TeamSpeak seems to accept any image format, so pretty much everything is allowed. This one is over my head when it comes to small technical details.

    Thank you in advance! (:

    Hi donaldgroomphotography,

    Open the Image in Photoshop, change the size or pixels according to the requirement.

    Then save for web on the file menu.

    You can choose the JPEG format.

    Let us know if it helps.

    He has no such limit, and in fact some users in this domain and other forums report catalogues over 1/2 million pictures works well.

    The idea to create multiple catalogs because you don't want to get too big catalog file size is a bad idea that you should never think of it again.

    The Image Size dialog box dialog box shows the uncompressed size.

    Your operating system (Explorer/Finder) shows the size compressed. (size on the disk)

    If you use save for Web, you can see the compressed size, but also an overview.
